“We have many shared memories. Hence, I want to engrave this sentence…”
Joy Wu (Taiwan)
My husband loves the movie “Titanic” and he has watched it more than 10 times!
There is one scene in this movie when the leading actor, Jack, explains his life philosophy to the upper-class people at a night party. He said, “I figure life’s a gift and I don’t intend on wasting it. You don’t know what hand you’re gonna get dealt next. You learn to take life as it comes at you… to make each day count.”
My husband gave me the above quote when I lost direction in my life. He wishes we can “make every day count”, and we have many shared memories. Hence, I want to engrave this sentence “You make my every day count” on the Muro Box to present it to him.
The two cats next to the sentence are my drawings of our cute babies.
“The quote (from our song) was actually true for us …”
Alex.F. (Romania)
“The quote is from an older song called ‘Read My Mind’ by The Killers. When the song was first released my girlfriend and I were high school students and both liked the song a lot, so she made me a T-shirt with the lyrics above. The text on the shirt said ‘I don’t mind if you don’t mind’, which is the part of the song that comes just before the part on the box ‘I don’t shine if you don’t shine’, so combining them makes the full verse from the song:
‘I don’t mind if you don’t mind
‘Cause I don’t shine if you don’t shine’.”
About 12 years later she is now my wife and the mother of my child so it turned out the quote was actually true for us. When I saw Muro Box I figured it was high time I returned the favor, I hope she likes it as much as I do!”
“We have seen elderly couples with gray hair walking hand in hand slowly, and we hope that one day, this scene will be ours.”
Chen Wen (Taiwan)
When you were 18 and I was 20, we were chasing our future. Though uncertain, we were still yearning and holding onto our dreams.
When you were 28 and I was 30, we built a family together, truly understanding each other and learning to adjust.
When you were 38 and I was 40, new members joined our family, and we faced new challenges and adjustments.
We once thought about the future we were pursuing, gradually moving toward protecting our family. Though arguments were unavoidable, we were able to overcome them step by step.
I hope that when you are 48 and I am 50, we will not forget our original intentions. Even if we lose everything, we will still have each other, and we can step into the next phase.
We have seen elderly couples with gray hair walking hand in hand slowly, and we hope that one day, this scene will be ours.
“Thank her for being willing to join the life adventure with me.”
Cho-Hao Lin (Taiwan)
I ordered the Muro Box as the wedding gift for my wife to thank her for being willing to join the life adventure with me.
“You are my greatest adventure” is a thoughtful sentence I found online. I like its concept because my wife and I came from different families with different backgrounds, and it is hard to find the right partner among so many people. I want to be with her in the following life journey, so I appreciate this sentence very much.

“Muro Box, the engraved image and the music composition are all part of a "thank you" note to my family (especially my wife).”
Bruno.A. (U. S. A.)
Muro Box, the engraved image and the music composition are all part of a “thank you” note to my family (especially my wife). Me and my wife have been together for almost 15 years now and during this time we went through major life changes. No matter what was happening, she was always by my side.
In recent years, we had a new baby (the smaller one pictured in the engraving) and as soon as he was born we learned that he had to have an emergency surgery. He was so small and we were all very worried, my wife even more so, but in the end everything was fine and now he is this amazing happy toddler.
I guess I do have a lot to be thankful about. Specifically about the chosen image, it depicts myself, my wife (Solange), my older child (Eduardo) and the younger one (Arthur).
“When My Wife Received This Gift, The Expression on Her Face Was Unforgettable!”
K. Gold (U. S. A.)
“My wife likes music boxes but is pretty selfless so she doesn’t spend much on herself.
One day I was playing some songs through a piano book and she noted that ‘Ballade Pour Adeline’ was her favorite song. I’ve been looking around for a music box that could play it for the past decade but could never find one because of its complexity. When My Wife Received This Gift, The Expression on Her Face Was Unforgettable! I was glad to see the Muro box as a possible solution.”
“I look forward to seeing my parents smile and play many songs on the Muro Box.”
Katsuki Fuchu (Japan)
I have duly received the Muro Box package. It came attached with a heartwarming message from the Muro Box team.
I really appreciate it and feel reassured that your team is determined to support the user community.
I look forward to seeing my parents smile and play many songs on the Muro Box.
Thank you very much !
Best regards,
Katsuki Fuchu
“This is truly a perfect birthday gift, not only with the love of her father but also the warm blessings from the entire Muro Box team.”
Young Chun-Ming (Taiwan)
My daughter was turning 20 years old, so I wanted to prepare a meaningful gift for her. It took me three months searching for such a gift, and I chose the Muro Box-N20 Standard in the end. Because this unique music box fulfilled her childhood wish to have a music box playing multiple songs.
At first, I thought that I just bought a product, but it turned out that I also bought the whole team’s service and best wishes for my daughter. The whole decision-making process for this purchase goes very well and I can feel that they really care about their customers’ experiences. Each step shows their attention to details: from helping me deciding which model fits my expectation, how to create customized melodies and engraving on the wood box and metal plate to perfectly present my wishes, and helping me order an add-on option (the 45W power bank) to be carefully packed and shipped together with my music box.
Of course, for my daughter, this is truly a perfect birthday gift, not only with the love of her father but also the warm blessings from the entire Muro Box team.
“Such a high-quality product, combined with thoughtful and efficient service, really left a lasting impression on me!”
Ann (Taiwan)
I’ve loved music boxes since I was a child! I’ve seen many different designs, but when I first heard about a music box that could play different songs continuously, I was immediately attracted.
When I actually saw the small, rounded N20, I was amazed by how clear and bright the sound was. I couldn’t believe that such a small device could be connected to a smartphone for music arrangement and even set to play wake-up music. It’s hard to believe that something so compact could be so functional inside and out!
A foreign colleague of mine recently had a birthday and became a grandfather (for the first time in his life). I wanted to give him a special gift to thank him for taking care of the younger generation. I was hoping to find a gift that was tasteful, could represent Taiwan, and was Made in Taiwan, but I couldn’t find anything suitable. Later, I stumbled upon the N20, which could be customized with an engraved message. The sound of the music box was so pleasant, and I thought it would be perfect for playing lullabies, so I immediately placed an order!
However, since my colleague was leaving Taiwan in just five days, I was worried I wouldn’t receive the gift in time to hand it to him personally. After communicating with Muro Box’s customer service about the engraving font and the expected delivery time, the whole process felt incredibly attentive and efficient. In the end, I received the music box by registered mail on the third day after placing the order.
When I opened the box to check the music box, I was impressed by the careful packaging. What touched me the most was the two handwritten cards from Miss Tsai, in both Chinese and English, expressing her blessings and providing links to usage instructions and FAQs. (Before I received the music box, I had already received a link to an online tutorial in both Chinese and English via Line from customer service, along with answers to many related questions.)
When my colleague received the music box, his emotions were overflowing. His love and admiration for the music box made me feel happy because I knew this gift truly touched his heart! Since it was designed and made in Taiwan, I felt proud as well! Such a high-quality product, combined with thoughtful and efficient service, really left a lasting impression on me!
“Muro Box can play any melody we like via MIDI, so it's the ideal instrument for us!”
Keita (Japan)
This is a cartoon character I am writing for between my close friends on twitter, left is my partner and right is me.
The sentence on the left reads ‘Sounds good / よいおと’ in the middle ‘Music box / オルゴール’ and on the right ‘Fun! / たのしい’ It says.
I play an instrument and make music as a hobby, and I would like to start playing music with her. As part of this, I bought a Muro Box for us to enjoy together. She and I both love the sound of a music box, plus it can play any melody we like via MIDI, so it’s the ideal instrument for us!
We are looking forward to receiving it! I also look forward to the photos you guys send me.
Thank you!
Keita

"Some memories can be replayed."
MICHAEL Tsao (Taiwan)
This music box was a gift for our dear coach. We knew there was a song that held special meaning for her, and its gentle rhythm was perfectly suited to the format of a music box. After discovering the N20 online, we worked with a composer to recreate the song. When we presented the gift at the restaurant, the room fell silent, and as the music began to play, the emotions in that moment were indescribable.
Thank you, Muro Box. When this music box plays, it brings not only emotions and love but also a wealth of cherished memories.
“The gift was sent to Korea for the idol group VANNER. “
Ms. Pong (Taiwan)
The gift was sent to Korea for the idol group VANNER. The designs were thoughtfully created by a partner who incorporated elements reflecting each member’s name, personality, and traits:
Gon: A dinosaur theme with three carrot-shaped leaves on his head to represent horns. His name is tied to dinosaurs, and the tail symbolizes the numerous heart emojis he likes to send to fans.
- Tae Hwan: A smiling dog with floppy ears. His side profile highlights his “golden angle,” and I included that intentionally. His initials are accompanied by a microphone, symbolizing his role as the main vocalist.
- Ah Guk: Features glasses (a personal touch) and his dog, Roy. The “O” in his name is intentionally drawn to resemble an egg 🥚.
- Young Gwang: A fox with his English initial and two shining stars ✧✧.
- Hye Seong: A cat with a curled tail (◝𖥦◜) and a warm sunflower on his head. The sprout in his name signifies his continual growth, which will eventually bloom into a flower.
As for the wooden box, the diamond is designed using only “V”-shaped cut lines to represent VVS. The sparkling detail at the end of the “S” reflects the brilliance of VVS and VANNER together. VVS is the fan club’s name.
Currently, two members are serving in the military, and we hope for a smooth reunion when they return. The English text “Be together” refers to the last song recorded by all the members before their hiatus.
Kyosuke Himuro's Special Edition of Muro Box (Japan)

The Birthday Gift for the Singer, Cindy Wang

Together with fellow members of “Ling Star Club,” we thoughtfully prepared a customized song and engraved design, specially ordering the Muro Box-N20 Standard Edition smart music box as a birthday gift for singer Cyndi Wang on September 5th.
“When we came across the Muro Box, we immediately knew it was the ideal solution for performing our works on the streets of Zurich.”
Proton d-oo-b (Switzerland)
Hello, everyone! I am Proton d-oo-b, and in 2016, I founded a unique music project called Alchemelic. The name is a combination of alchemy and melic (meaning melodic).
Our goal is to bring music to the streets and explore the potential of live performances. Initially, we planned to play music through speakers on the streets of Zurich but quickly discovered that this wasn’t permitted. To overcome this challenge, we considered using a music box with punched cards.
While searching for the perfect music box, we came across the Muro Box on Amazon, and we immediately knew it was the ideal solution for performing our works on the streets of Zurich.
